I Can't Wait to Go Mad
You're going to do something big
A crazy passionate leap
Oh, it will be very dangerous
You'll probably lose it all
It's going to eat your mind
stop your heart
burn your spirit
and leave your body ten years closer to Hell
You'll doubt yourself every moment
and you'll scream in frustration
-I bet you'll hate everything
everyone
and yourself
It's going to be intolerable
You'll scream at yourself
"Why, you *******?"
but you won't have any answers
You'll survive.
You will glance into a mirror
wondering on those new scars
Seeing that you fought everything
to get nowhere
Enjoy this time
as it will be the greatest stillness
that you will ever know
Once you've lost it all,
once you're broken
once
you
are
consumed
You will finally laugh
knowing that you lived for the first time
But they'll think you're insane!
...and they will be right
Because you looked deep,
directly into the eyes of God
and you never blinked
